"I don't think that being a strong person is about ignoring your emotions and fighting your feelings. Putting on a brave face doesn't mean you're a brave person. That's why everybody in my life knows everything that I'm going through. I can't hide anything from them. People need to realise that being open isn't the same as being weak."

- Taylor Swift

Two-Faced

The boy I love has two faces,
One that smiles at me,
One that jeers at others.
The boy I love has two hearts,
One that is here,
One that is gone.

The boy I love has two sides,
One happy,
One eerily dark.
The boy I love has two minds,
One I love,
One they hate.

The boy I love has two faces,
One always eclipses the other for me.
The boy I love has two souls...
One for them, and one for me.

A very reflective poem about a boy.

It can be aggravating sometimes!

One face for them and one face for you.

Both are the 'real' ones, and there are probably others he hasn't shown yet.

I like the lines which refer to the 'two hearts'.

The end of the poem made me think a little bit of Twilight, specifically the third book.
